449/511 Breather hose mod

Ty and I are working on a new CNC machined oil breather that can be mass produced. You will be able to open it and clean it out. Anodized, laser etched, etc.

I hope I dont have to get into my bank acct and clean it out to get one of these beauties when you and Ty finish them haha

Just in case, there will just be that option.

Yea, I don't know what the total costs are yet, but I know that Ty doesn't gouge people, most of his stuff is sold barely over cost, it's a wonder he even makes a living.

One of the problems with the current breather is that once it starts throwing oil out, it acts like a siphon and continues to pump it out. By moving the breather to the valve cover, we will eliminate 90% of the blow by oil. This will allow more oil to be stored in the dry sump and cool the torque limiter.

So the amount of crankcase pressure being built up will still vent well enough thru the valve cover?

It will vent better. It won't have to go through the torque limiter, it can go right out.

Will the tranny/cases handle this oil build up on the bottom ? Might be alot of hydraulic pressure at the starting line. ; )

Oil build up?

Yes , for those who wish to increase the oil capacity by doing so the tranny will need to shed off a bunch of oil and will do so very fast and oil in this area will change coarse of flow momentarily back track towards the torque converter , only allowing a certain amount of flo " by design " to go past/threw the tranny... One reason your old design may have experienced the " siphon effect , ejecting oil out the case breather and the return line being on the same side as well" right of tranny" might be the reason for the oil load up on the right side and not making it over to the left side.

Just a thought Tinken , not really 100% that I'm right. I am very cautious.

I wasn't refering to my design that siphons oil out, BMW's design does that and is why we have oil in our filters.

I understand what you are saying. The 449 case is a bit odd though, it has 5 compartments. It has the crank area which is sucked dry by pump #1, also blow by gasses are sucked through by #1 pump, so that area is completely sealed. 2. Far left side is compartment 3. rear right center is main oil storage. 4. right primary clutch cover and where pump #2 draws from. 5. clutch basket area. Gas flows from compartment 1 to 2 to 3 and then to 4 where it goes throught the torque limiter and out the breather.

I need to go back to school! He he!

Everytime I have a idea I feel like I need to ask the teacher haha Tinken is the shitsky ! Hahaa !

B

Teacher by going right out you mean up the cam chain shafts ? .... I couldn't help myself

Thanks for the complement Wheelin! Actually Ty is genius, his knowledge of motorcycles towers over mine. Just the other day I was adjusting my rear brake on my 511 and noticed the little round adjuster. Ty designed that, on all of our 449/511's and Husqvarna manufactured it. Ty sells the anodized version, bling bling, oh yea.. haha. But yes, many of the parts on our bikes was designed by Ty.

I think that its really cool that Ty designed parts for a bike that ends up as a stock component! Did he design any other parts that made it through the factory production process?

Ty Davis was the factory race team leader for Husqvarna, his testing and input changed the 2010 449 (yes 2010) to what you see now in the 11-13 models.

Well then tell him I am impressed with his work!!
